[QUOTE="Swarfmonkey, post: 9226469, member: 144242"] The Office for Students holds data on post-graduation outcomes by subject. Those with degrees in creative arts & related subjects, mass communication (which would cover media studies and the like), and social studies (psych, sociology etc) have the worst earnings and are least likely to be in graduate level employment. Those are the areas where you'll find those Mickey Mouse degrees. The highest for both earnings and likelihood of being in a grad level job (none of which will come as a surprise) are Comp Sci, Engineering, Mathematical Sciences, Vet Med, Economics, and Medicine. If you met someone with a degree in media studies that earns 100k a year, you met one hell of a statistical outlier... They also have more than a few reports that show how degrees have been dumbed down. In 2010/2011 just 15.5% of students were awarded a First, by 2021/2022 that had risen to 32.8%. [/QUOTE]
